Riley Thilthorpe looks a real player. 5 snags on debut. Very strong in the marking contest.

    And Koschitzke has 5 for the hawks.

    I hate to complain about anything when we are 6-0 but we might be the only team left soon without a young exciting key forward capable of kicking a big bag.  The way the games changing I dont want to be left behind the 8 ball.

    If people want to include Luke Jackson then ok we have one even though he hasnt kicked a bag yet.

    Looks like we’re finally going to have a game where both sides score 100 pts. 

    A throw back to the old days where this happened regularly.

    (and first time since we beat Carlton in 2019)

    Adelaide have taken 15 marks inside 50 in the first 3 quarters. They'll be doing well to take 2 marks against May, Lever and Thommo when we play them in round 10.

    That was an entertaining game in Launceston played by two pretty awful teams. How nice it is to be able to say that.

    Don't fret too much P2J, I recon Weid will turn it on at senior level at some point soon given the chance.  Still plenty of years left in Tommy Mac and BBB hopefully too for us to find a KPF when the right oppertunity arrises.

    In the mean time, I think it's still a good thing that we have been able to find multiple avenues to goal and spread the scoring around without a dominant KPF.  We are stitting on 2nd position and so must be doing something right up forward.

    BTW, I also I do like the appeal of having a KPF.  We have had so many hits and misses and potential super starrs in this area over the years.  Lyon, Bennett, Jackovich, Pike, Cuthberson, Schwartz, Neitz, Robinson?, Cook, Clarke, Hogan, T Mac.

    Collingwood's jumper possibly the worst since every single one Hawthorn have ever worn.

    Agreed. Yet we’re forced to wear the disco jumper against some teams when there is no clash. 

    I wonder what they will dream up for us this year when we play Footscray since both teams will now likely play finals as well....

    Recent equality laws introduced now mean that they can both self identify as quality teams and your words considered to be hate speech.

    The AFL's clash jumper policy is a disgraceful farce.

    We're required to wear our clash jumper in an apparent "clash" with Collingwood, but Essendon (bear in mind they are the away team today) is permitted to wear a predominantly black jumper against Collingwood's predominantly black jumper.

    It happens all the time: Carlton, Richmond and Essendon are permitted to wear their home jumpers against each other and Collingwood despite all of them clashing. 

    The rules should be transparent and all 18 clubs should be required to follow them.

    There's an epidemic of throwing in the game. Sidebottoms throw just now was blatant.

    I was really impressed with the umpiring in our Geelong game, where they must have called a record number of free kicks for throws against both sides. I had thought the AFL was onto it. Maybe not.

    The Dogs won a flag in 2016 throwing it out from tackles. Geelong's succeeded for years doing the same thing.

    Exactly. I have no problem with a clash strip. I actually like our current clash strip. The AFL needs to have a strict policy that applies to all teams.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

      The Dogs reigned supreme in 2018 with an inaugural AFLW premiership cup and the Demons matched this feat by winning the cup as the Season 7 2022 champions.Meggs wasn’t born when the Doggies won their first VFL premiership cup against the Demons in 1954. Covid prevented many Demons fans from legally witnessing the victorious 2021 AFL Grand Final cup performance between the Demons and the Bulldogs, but we all grin when remembering those magnificent seven third quarter goals.

    • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

      Hawthorn and Melbourne. Two teams with impressive form from last week but with seasons that are travelling on different trajectories meet in Saturday’s twilight game for what could well be the most intriguing contest of the AFL’s penultimate round. Sadly, the game has been relegated to that unappealing time slot in the weekend when Melburnians are typically preoccupied with activities other than football. It falls between the morning's shopping, afternoon sport and recreation, and Saturday night fever. A time usually reserved for relatively insignificant events but this one is not a nothingburger for either of the clubs or their fans.

    • AFLW: 2025 Season Preview

      Ten seasons. Eighteen teams. With the young talent pathway finally fully connected, Women’s Australian Rules football is building momentum and Season 2025 promises to be the best yet. In advance of Season 10, the AFL leadership has engaged in candid discussions with all clubs regarding strategies to boost attendance and expand fan bases. Concerningly, average attendances in 2024 were 2,660 fans per match, with the women’s game incurring an annual loss of approximately $50 million.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

    • PREGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?
